Bob Littlefield: A Tale of Two Cities

To
explain why I am running for Mayor I need to tell you a story. It’s called
“A Tale of Two Cities.”

The
first city is Scottsdale. Scottsdale is a very special place - it is literally
the best place in the Valley to live, work and visit. It is so special every one
of us who lives here, in every part of the city, gladly paid a premium to do so.
It is so special it is the number one tourist destination in the valley,
attracting visitors who heavily support our local economy.

How
did Scottsdale get to be so special? Partly because of location – we have a
great climate, a stunning natural landscape and a unique Western character all
our own.

But
what really made Scottsdale special were the thousands of concerned and involved
citizens who worked over many decades to create the city we call home.
Scottsdale has had many bold, visionary projects in our history such as the
McDowell-Sonoran Preserve, the Indian Bend Wash Greenbelt, The Civic Center
Mall, and our award-winning Public Art Program. These ideas didn’t come from
city government; they came from residents like you who wanted a safe and
beautiful place to live, not just for themselves but also for their families and
friends.

Concerned
and involved citizens also spearheaded Scottsdale’s high standards for design,
development and code enforcement. Standards like such as the Environmentally
Sensitive Lands Ordinance, Natural Area Open Space, and all our various
Character Area Plans, Scenic Corridors, Streetscapes and Design Guidelines keep
our city special. Developers built within our citizen-inspired guidelines rather
than try to bypass them, because they knew making our city special was good for
everyone, including them.

Now
let me tell you the story of another city, a city I call Upside Down Scottsdale.
I call it that because in Upside Down Scottsdale the residents no longer set the
agenda for the city’s growth - special interests do. Greed and short-term
self-interest take the place of both civic pride and creating a sustainable high
quality of life as the driving forces behind Scottsdale’s growth. And our city
“leaders” are put in office by special-interest campaign contributions rather
than by records of civic achievement.

Upside
Down Scottsdale is the city the incumbent Mayor and his allies in the current
City Council majority want. An Upside Down Scottsdale of tall buildings that
block our views, urban-level density that clogs our streets with traffic and
stresses our infrastructure, an oversupply of apartments, and an out-of-control
bar district. They are encouraging the destruction and decay of Scottsdale’s
once world-renowned arts scene. They happily approve commercial development in
residential neighborhoods and even in the citizen-created crown jewel of
Scottsdale, the Preserve. And, they are squandering your tax dollars on
special-interest handouts instead of funding our city's critical infrastructure
needs.

My
mission as Mayor will be to restore control of Scottsdale’s future to the
residents, and to implement the residents' vision for how their city grows.
Together we can make Scottsdale right-side-up
again!

POLITIFACTS

Republic We Defend

Our forefathers pledged their lives, their fortunes and their scared honor to give us a Republic with Liberty and Freedom and Benjamin Franklin upon leaving the signing of the Constitution said "we have given you a Republic, if you can keep it." Can we keep it? Are we going to stand by and let the government we elected take away our Freedom and Liberties? FREEDOM MUST BE DEFENDED, NOW IS THE TIME and WE ARE THAT GENERATION!!! Semper Fi
